IT Skills Council
The work of the IT Skills Council aims to ensure a good supply of digital excellence. This involves efforts to attract and train/further train both young people and professionals to the industry, and to match graduates, both native and foreign-born, with IT employers.
Beatrice Silow, President and Chief Culture Officer of Nexer Group and Chair of the IT Skills Council"The IT Skills Council makes an important and fantastic contribution and drives important industry issues that benefit the whole of Sweden. For us as a company, it is important to have the opportunity to be involved in such a context to influence and for me personally, the skills issue and gender equality are some of my favorite issues,"

Members of the IT Skills Council:
Chair: Beatrice Silow, Head of Communications and Culture, Nexer Group.
Participating companies: 3ds, Aaareon, Ants Tech Recruiters, Atea, CGI, Crossworkers, Digitalent, ECIT, Emwia, Ericsson, Hogia, IBM, IFS, Lingio, Microsoft, Mobile Heights, Nexert group, Otivr, Sigma IT, TietoEvry, Visma, Visolit and WirelessCar.
Carl-Johan Hamilton, founder of Ants and member."If the tech industry in Sweden does not succeed in attracting the individuals who can fill these roles, the major growth will slow down. I think there are issues that we can work on together as an industry, and influence each other but also those in power in politics and education to make decisions that allow us to solve the issue in the long term."
